Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
The presenter was too monotone and needed to stop reading the slides and do more presenting. I can read the slides.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
I tuned out after the first 15 minutes. Although an expert according to the introduction, the presenter seemed unsure and essentially just read from the script. I could have done that myself. She may have added more of her own experience later in the training, but I tuned out early on. In addition, the presenter was having some audio technical difficulties.

The presenter was terribly unprofessional. Lots of stammering, losing their place, uhms every other word, and they even laughed at something off camera at one point.

The ad for the class said New Wage & Hour updates. This was a refresher course of existing data

The presentation materials presented were titled something to the effect of Things I Need to Know About Cannabis in New York. I nearly left the presentation before realizing it was mistitled.
